Investors are encouraged to review the reconciliation of our non-GAAP financial results to the GAAP results as provided below. The Company provides non-GAAP financial measures to supplement its consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with GAAP. These non-GAAP financial measures are intended to supplement the users' overall understanding of the Company's current financial performance and its prospects for the future. Specifically, the Company believes the non-GAAP results provide useful information to both management and investors by identifying certain expenses, gains and losses that, when excluded from the GAAP results, may provide additional understanding of the Company's core operating results or business performance. However, these non-GAAP financial measures are not intended to supercede or replace the Company's GAAP results. A detailed reconciliation of the GAAP results to the non-GAAP results is provided in the "Non-GAAP Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations" schedules below. Financial Overview - Fourth Quarter Ended June 30, 2004 -- Communications Products Group net revenue grew 8% sequentially to $85.8 million, and represented 49% of total revenue. Commercial and Consumer Products Group net revenue also grew 8% sequentially, and represented $88.7 million, or 51% of total revenue. -- On a geographic basis, net revenue from North American customers represented 61% of net revenue. European and Asia-Pacific customers represented 21% and 18% of net revenue, respectively. -- GAAP and non-GAAP gross margins were 24% of net revenue. -- GAAP operating expenses reduced to $68 million, or 39% of net revenue. Non-GAAP operating expenses improved to $58 million, or 33% of net revenue. -- The Company held $1,549 million in cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments at the end of the fourth quarter, of which approximately $1,479 million was cash, money market and other highly liquid fixed income securities. The Company used approximately $33 million in cash from operations, including $10 million related to E2O and $9 million used for restructuring and realignment payments, and approximately $35 million in net cash for acquisition related activity. Business Outlook Management provided the following financial guidance. For the quarter ending September 30, 2004, the company expects: -- Sequential net revenue increase to be in the range of 8% to 13% -- non-GAAP (loss) per share to be $(0.01) -- non-GAAP EBITDA to be in the range of $(5) million to breakeven, depending on revenue levels and variations in costs and product mix. This outlook excludes items which, depending upon actual results, may be required by GAAP, such as restructuring and related costs, acquisition related costs, amortization of purchased intangibles, reductions of goodwill and other long-lived assets, and gains and losses on investments, the likelihood and amount of which are uncertain at this time.
